by PaintTheFuture · 2025-12-27 · Data packs

Place an item frame or glow item frame on a piston. You'll see a banner appear in it. These are the banners that can be displayed. White banners with a number means you can still add that many blocks without hitting the push limit. Red banners means you're over the limit by that many blocks. Plus signs means the number is at least 10. Green sawtooth means the piston is trying to move slime blocks. Yellow sawtooth means it's trying to move honey blocks. Red Ø : Piston is being jammed by a block that can't move, like bedrock, obsidian, or an extended piston. White ? on black banner : Helper is confused because it tried to calculate the exact tick the piston was moving. Appears for 2 ticks before recalculation. Red Ø over gray bricks and brown fess : The piston is trying to move itself. Piston with red triangle : Piston can't pull, either because it's a non-sticky piston, or the block can't be pulled. Blocks that can't be pulled are blocks that get mined with they are pushed, and glazed terracotta. If you use a glow item frame, all the blocks the piston is trying to move will be highlighted (max is 23). Dragon Egg : Orientation indicates direction it will be moved. White egg : Normal
